Page 109 - Alison Balsom Quiet City FULL BOOK

In the September issue of Gramophone, Editor Martin Cullingford meets with
trumpeter Alison Balsom to talk about her new recording ‘Quiet City’, drawing on

20th century American works from the era where classical and jazz music met and
mingled.

Meanwhile, to coincide with their new Mozart recording, conductor Sir Roger
Norrington and violinist Francesca Dego discuss the joy of performing the

composer′s concertos together, while the soprano Fatma Said tells us about her
kaleidoscopic new recital release.

In Collection, Fabrice Fitch explores recordings of Tallis’s Lamentations of
Jeremiah and recommends his favourites, while in Icons, we celebrate the

achievements of the illustrious Hollywood String Quartet.
